Birth classes, when to take them?

lapancita

Hello everyone! Our baby due date is August 12th and we signed up for a birth class that is on July 12th… I am getting a little nervous that might be too close to the due date? But we also want to keep the information “fresh”. There was an option for June 12th. Have you taken birth classes already? What’s your experience? Thanks!

I don’t know what the “right” time is, but I’m due 8/23 and have a birthing class 6/15 and a lactation/newborn class 6/22!

thanks for your reply! I’m due on 8/12 and scheduled my class for 7/12. I’m a little nervous that might be too close! I haven’t scheduled a lactation class, I definitely should!
